Harry Potter Leads Prison's Bestseller List
By Times Wire Reports
Published: 08/15/2005

Harry Potter has bewitched detainees at the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where tales of the young wizard are among the most popular books, a prison librarian said.
"Harry Potter is a popular title among some of the detainee population," said the librarian, a civilian contractor identified only as Lorie who works at the prison camp at the U.S. naval base.
Lorie said the popularity of the bestselling Harry Potter books, which recount the adventures of a boy wizard, was matched only by the prisoners' passion for Agatha Christie, some of whose murder mysteries are set in the Middle East.
